The sum of two numbers is 11, and their difference is 9. what are the two numbers?

  10 and 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the two numbers. The problem statement lets us write two equations describing their relationships:

  x + y = 11

  x - y = 9

Adding these equations together, we have ...

  (x +y) +(x -y) = (11) +(9)

  2x = 20

  x = 10 . . . . . . . . . you will notice this is the average of the two given numbers

Then ...

  10 + y = 11 . . . . substitute for x in the first equation

  y = 1 . . . . . . . subtract 10

The two numbers are 10 and 1.

answer: b. f(x) = (x + 2)^3 (x^2 - 7x + 3)^4

step-by-step explanation:

polynomials always have as many roots as their order. this is a 4th order polynomial- hence 4 roots!

complex roots of polynomials always come in pairs. the quadratic equation has the "+/-" in that will alwaysgenerate m+ni amd m-ni, so 7-2i must be a root of this polynomial equation.

the order of the numerator and denominator are both 2. so the horizontal asymptote is y=a2/b2 =7

verticle asymptotes are the forbidden x-values. f(x) becomes undefined at x=-3 because this value will cause a zero denominator.

a graph of r(x) will have vertical asymptotes at ±1 because these values will make the denominator zero. so the domain of the function cannot include ±1.

you 're wlecome! : )
